[Opinions] Milcah
I'm a sucker for lesser-used Biblical girls' names. This one is one of my faves.WDYT of the name Milcah for a girl? What would you pair it with?

It sounds like something somebody from Boston would call a piece of dairy equipment. You know. On the fahm.

I just keep hearing it as the start of "milk a cow". I'm definitely a no on this one.

My toddler asks for "milka" when he wants to nurse so I definitely couldn't use it.I don't think it works in an English speaking country, because it sounds like milk, but it may be fine elsewhere.Milcah Peninnah

Hi !!!Micah 6/10 it was an old-favourite of mine on a boy because of a fictional character. But I would never use it.I dislike it on a girl.But I saw a feminine form of it: Myka.
I find it ok and better than Micah on a girl.What about Michal or Micol?
They are feminine names, similar in the sound and Biblical as well.EDIT oh sorry...!!
Milcah is the name you wrote!
Well...
I find it too similar to Micah anyway.I much prefer the simplicity of Milka.
Unfortunately Milka is also a chocolate brend.What about Milkah?
Adding an h makes it different to Milka but enough similar to recognise the origin without confusing it with Micah.
